Montgolfier Brothers' Test Flight is an endless flyer loosely based on the story of the first hot air balloon flight

Join a dog, a sheep and a duck on a hot air balloon test flight and see how far you can go!

  • One-button gameplay: Press A (or B) to go up!
  • Pass checkpoints to earn extra time.
  • Hit the turbines for a boost!
  • Stay close to the ground to gain speed.
  • The further you go, the faster you fly!

Hints:

  • Press the A button repeatedly as the balloon descends to fly in a straight line.
  • To fly over large obstacles, press A longer before reaching the obstacle, to anticipate the time it takes for the balloon to climb. 

For Playdate. Can be played with the Playdate simulator on Windows, macOS and Linux .

Nice game ! I like it ! The floating ballon is really smooth. Easy to handle, but hard to beat. Very nice design too, with a beautifull reflecting water.

- Art is visually interesting and the reflection is so cool.
